Lets see some interesting medals.

Here is a interesting badge or medal I found some time back, the figures are of some of important people of the day, I think the 1880s time period. I think the middle figure is Queen Victoria 1837 to 1901 she was around. You never know what you might find. Brian C.

Here is a neat GAR medal I eyeballed on the surface of a bottle dump many years ago. It is amazing condition for being found in the ground, or I should say, on the ground.

Nice bunch of postings, the clasp hands were part of the Irish thing, probably others as well. HH

watercolor, could you please make a whatisit post please? or link to it if you already have, i think we could solve this with some help, plus i dont want to flood this thread with irrelevant posts.

the only thing i could come up with for the flag is Fribourg:

and the clasped hands represent unity, friendship, and are a common part of union logos

Nothing of great historical value but always fun to dig.
